Nerd Of Prey posted:I think they kinda dropped the ball with Lex Luthor, though. The actor was good, but the writing usually wasn't... and when he left the show it kinda got more interesting. The idea that they used to be best friends probably worked better on paper, too. His dad was a way better character. Them being friends was actually an idea from the comics. Superman is responcible for Lex loosing his hair.

d00gZ posted:Yo, did Grant Morrison just get away with publishing a Superman comic where he basically says DC's lawyers are the devil, and that the creators of Superman got completely hosed? Did that just happen? Waid once wrote a comic making fun of a DC artist who killed someone with a hammer.

Starsnostars posted:What? Greg Brooks who drew the Crimson Avenger miniseries in 1988 killed his wife with a hammer. Notice the name on who its from (its the Crimson Avengers real name) This is what got Waid fired from DC in 1988.

Space_Butler posted:This is how I understand it as well. I also believe there's been no editorial changeover despite the reboot, so the same people that were in editorial during New Krypton/War of the Supermen/Grounded are still in charge now, which begs the question exactly what does an editor have to do to get fired at DC? Allow a cartoon that makes fun of a former employee murdering a woman. That is what got Waid fired.

I can safely say that he was not the worst Hellblazer writer, but that is not a ringing endorsement.

Space_Butler posted:Adventures of Superman #1 (chapter 1) is now on Comixology for 99 cents. Buy it to support a Superman with trunks, dammit! Oh, and also because it's fun, classic Superman. I already did, and just read it. I wish there was a way to just get a subscription so I do not have to worry about forgetting it. I enjoyed it. It seems that Parker gets Superman. That he was trying to help him even when he was fighting. However, it does look like it might get a little repetitive if its just Superman facing test after test. bobkatt013 fucked around with this message at 00:16 on Apr 30, 2013 |

This Superboy is a clone, like the last one, and he calls himself Conner, like the last one, and that's basically where the similarities end because New 52 Superboy is just horrid. You know what origin they should use? The one from this letter. I wonder whatever happened to that kid and what he is doing now? Also what does he think of this new Superboy?

Space_Butler posted:I didn't get to read it til today but this week's Adventures of Superman chapter might be the finest thing Tom DeFalco has written in close to a decade. The art style was gorgeous, too, and the throwback costume worked perfectly. It's so nice that while the superman titles are being dominated by mediocrity, there's at least this one shining example of how to do comics right. I also find it hilarious that global warming deniers are equal to Superman deniers.
